precincts the vote of the older parties. Both
Republican and Democratic aggregates conse-
quently show falling off In the first returns
received the Democratic falling off is greater
than the Republican. Sixteen precincts of Ham

The absence of the Union Labor vote in 1885.
and its large proportion now in Cincinnati,
causes an increase in the net Republican gain in
this county out of proportion to the total vote.

from Democrats than from Republicans, which
ia usually the case, the Republican gain is in
creased, though the Republican total may be
decreased.

ceived show that Foraker has carried the county
by a majority Of possibly 1900. Some esti-
mates place it higher. This, in consider alton of

the conclusion that the entire county ticket of
the Republicans is elected

mainder of the Republican ticket will have
